Mortal Kombat: Legacy Goes Blu-Ray

Mortal Kombat: Legacy may have started life as the film equivalent of fan fiction, but come this November, the series is headed to Blu-Ray.

Indulge me for a moment while I offer a short history lesson.

In June of 2010, a mysterious trailer hit the 'net starring everyone's favorite Mortal Kombat characters (and the incredibly charismatic Michael Jai White). It was a wholly new take on the franchise, simultaneously more realistic than the traditional storyline and also much, much more grim. Instead of a lizard ninja, Reptile was an insane serial killer with a rare birth defect and cannibalistic tendencies, for instance.

The series was well-received, recently came to an end, and now Warner Bros. has revealed plans to collect all 9 episodes of Mortal Kombat: Legacy on a single Blu-Ray disc to be released on November 8. High-Def Digest reports:

Specs have yet to be revealed, but supplements include: Mortal Kombat Legacy: Fights - A look at the role Fatalities and hyper-violence play in the Mortal Kombat storytelling process. Included within the piece is a detailed exploration of the fights and stunts staged during the production of the web-series and Mortal Kombat Legacy: Fan Made - Go inside the mind of Mortal Kombat super fan Kevin Tancharoen and uncover his passion and vision that brought Mortal Kombat: Legacy to life.

Surprisingly absent from the announcement is any possible ties the release might have to the aforementioned game. I was at least expecting a code for some middling DLC trinkets. Maybe a Black Dynamite skin for Jax?
